E-com platforms in Bangladesh must be registered within 2 months




All Bangladesh e-commerce firms will have to register with the commerce ministry within the next two months, according to a decision taken at a recent cabinet meeting.

Briefing the media after the meeting, Islam said if any consumer is cheated by any e-commerce company, he or she will be compensated from that fund, according to bangla media reports.

The government arrived at this decision after hundreds of customers were cheated by several e-commerce platforms like Evaly, Eorange and Dhamaka.
